Summary
This shampoo contains Sodium Laureth Sulfate, which is a less harsh surfactant than Sodium Lauryl Sulfate but can still strip natural oils from the hair and scalp. The product is processed and lacks beneficial natural ingredients that could improve scalp health. While it avoids some harsher chemicals, the presence of SLES and the lack of rewarding ingredients limit its score.
